Thank you
I believe the vanden plas is an edition of the xj8, which means the ones linked in the first post should work I think.

I recently got the Mina springs and they ride real nice, but the front don't look lowered at all. The back do but the front looks silly with the OEM (if not higher!) ride height. It's been several weeks so I think it's already settled as much as possible. Have you noticed this? I'm wondering if I should get a machinist to grind down the springs half an inch or something.

I have purchased a set H/R springs for my 08 xkr and they lower 1.1/2", as I dont want to lower more than 1" I have been looking into installing spacers under my springs,The info I have come up with on varies sites are that the increase or decrease in spring length , is approx. 2.1/2 times at the wheel , so if the decrease in spring length is 1/2" then it would lower the car approx 1"1/4 .

Hi I'm thinking of cutting the springs. Can you tell me how much you cut off to lower the car by 1.5inchs and did you do the same with the front.
Are there any traps you came across doing it this way.
Cu, Eric

This is what my POS sits at with the 1.2" springs. Dummy low, wouldnt recommend unless you go with a bigger wheel size. I scrape everywhere i go. Making a skid plate currently
Which springs should i go with? The paramount's or mina's? They both lower it 1.2"
